Chapter 719: The Lake Spirit
"Fwah, fresh milk after soaking in the hot spring is bliss." Elysia wiped her mouth and put the milk bottle on the table.
"Just like I said, right? Freshly squeezed elven milk is indeed the freshest. Although it's not as good as high-quality fertilizer, it's in my top ten." Hea burped a little and rolled around the table. She felt that she had drank too much milk, and her avatar's body became heavy.
Meanwhile, Celes was already bloated with milk and looked a bit drunk.
"Fresh, freshly squeezed elven milk?" Elysia muttered in surprise.
Sylvia, Vanessa, and the girls gaped in amazement at Hea's frank statement. They looked at Ashera suspiciously, especially at those big buns that almost jumped out of the towel shackles.
"What? Why are you all looking at me like that?" Ashera felt a bit uncomfortable receiving such a stare. She subconsciously covered her breasts with her hands as if she knew that those girls were staring in that direction.
"That's impossible, right? Even though this is elven milk, she is still a virgin. Hea, is this really elven milk?" Sylvia shrugged her shoulders and pointed at the half-empty milk bottle in her hand.
Hea stopped rolling around for a moment. She marveled at the opinion of others. "Huh? Is something wrong? It's indeed high-quality elven milk that comes from our finest farm. The forest cows are so cute and make delicious milk. But, well... We can't get much milk because those forest cows on farms also need some for their offspring."
"Why name this elven milk... It's still cow's milk. I thought a perverted female elf just squeezed her milk out for this because of your statement, Hea." Sylvia wiped her nonexistent sweat and gulped down the milk.
"Perverted female elf? Fufu, nice. She is indeed an elf who campaigns for exhibitionism among her fellow female elves. She only has any robes or dresses that show off her curves." Yralissa covered her mouth.
"We need the light of the sun and moon to recover and become stronger. We never allow anyone to touch us or stare at us without permission, regardless of anything. Don't tarnish the honor of the elves with that kind of remark." Ashera pursed her lips with dissatisfaction. She then pointed her hand at the rolling fluffy little ball on the table. "And you, Hea. You're drunk, and please don't talk carelessly. That would lead to misunderstandings."
"I can't be drunk just because of milk! Hic." He denied it with a red face. She hiccuped and stumbled as she was about to fly. Therefore, she returned to the table and went near her twin sister.
"You will stay here overnight with me, Celes. You will return to Fairy Continent tomorrow morning." Hea muttered before lying down next to her twin sister.
"Is it a proposal or has some hidden meaning, Ashera? Next to you is the Goddess of Light, the divine embodiment of holy light. Her almighty being is the light herself. Is that why you chose to be near the Goddess of Light for a reason?" Yralissa presented her observations with great respect.
"..." Ashera widened her eyes in shock. She glanced at the ethereal, heavenly lady next to her. For some unknown reason, she was drawn to this Goddess without noticing.
It was probably because she was still a female elf who couldn't stand the attraction of the light. However, what Yralissa said was perhaps true. If elves, especially females, desperately need light... Then what would happen if the Goddess of Light was nearby and constantly emitted her divine light?
The previous light explosion and light paradise had already made her wet. So many female elves were also smitten because of that light. It was only a matter of time before she and the elves bowed down and worshiped the Light Goddess.
Ashera trembled slightly and hugged her arms as she realized that, but she didn't have any intention of rebelling against that thought.
At the event just now, she had the golden opportunity to soak in the hot springs with the Goddesses! Even though there was a weird rule that everyone had to wear a bath towel, no one was allowed to soak nude. Yet, it was still a great experience.
"You'd better get dressed first." Elena was slightly amused by Ashera's stupified expression, but she didn't really care. She just walked away.
Elysia then went after Elena, and everyone else left the hot spring area.
"Nee, are we going to spend the night in this palace or where? Shall we go straight to rest or want to visit somewhere before going to sleep? I've heard a legend about the pond of enlightenment. Does that place really exist, or is it just a myth?" Sylvia stepped forward and raised her hand for attention.
"The pond of enlightenment?" Elysia felt somewhat intrigued and curious about the place.
"Yes, I once read a story from my father's documents. The pond of enlightenment is located somewhere in the central region of the Elven Continent. That place is said to have a spirit of knowledge capable of answering any question, even if it's about the world secrets or divine secrets!" Sylvia spreads her arms wide with passion. Since she was already on the Elven Continent, she wanted to go there.
"That place sounds like an exaggeration. Do you think the pool can answer questions the Goddesses don't know? Any questions? Hmm, that sounds like a fake story." Yuuki narrowed his eyes and folded his arms. She didn't have the slightest bit of faith in such a place.
"Who knows? I'm just curious about the place." Sylvia shrugged her shoulders. She also couldn't confirm anything.
"That sounds interesting. Elven Empress Ashera, do you know where the pond of enlightenment is located? Can we visit there?" Elena smiled faintly. She also felt somewhat attracted to the place if it was real.
Ashera folded her arms and patted her chin for a moment. "The pond of enlightenment? I don't think we have a place like that on our land. It's just the devil's made-up story to set the background for their arrival on our land several decades ago. However, that story was not made without reason. They just misunderstood everything.
The pond of enlightenment never existed, but we have a lake of wisdom. A wise water spirit had occupied that place for thousands of years. The lake of wisdom is a sacred and sacred place where we will hold a holy ceremony nearby once a year. However, the lake spirit festival is only held at the end of autumn..."
"Oh, so it's like that. Can't we visit that place now? Isn't the spirit of knowledge active at night? Now is our chance to visit!" Sylvia still wanted to visit that place.
"You know too much, miss devil. What exactly will you do when you meet the wise lake spirit?" Ashera snorted and looked deeply at Sylvia.
"I don't know. I just want to know the capability of the wise spirit in question." Sylvia smiled innocently as she grasped her hands behind her back.
"Elven Empress Ashera, we are going there for a visit before the girls go to bed. Are you going to show us the way?" Elena gave her orders the same way.
"Let me take you to the lake. It's not too far from this forest city." Ashera heaved a quiet sigh and complied. She knew that this group would still go there even though she said no.
"Good." Elena nodded, and Sylvia was ecstatic. The girls weren't feeling too excited, but they were going anyway.
Only Elysia and Elena had a hidden reason to visit that wise lake spirit. Perhaps, that spirit had a clue as to who brought them into this world.
Elena brought everyone flying towards the north with magic. A beautiful small lake twice the size of a football field could be seen even though they had barely crossed five kilometers from Eshvelenora Woodland.
The moonlight and the shimmer of the night sky reflected off the lake like a perfect mirror of the lake's calm surface.
Everyone landed near the lake to admire the beauty of the lake. The water seemed to sparkle in the light of colors.
Elysia immediately used her sacred vision to find the whereabouts of the wise spirit in question.
She could see a mermaid-like creature doing a stretching exercise at the bottom of the lake.
A status screen suddenly popped out before Elysia's eyes. She accidentally looked at that water spirit intensely.
As if noticing a gaze from outside the lake, the water spirit gasped in surprise and immediately looked up. She could see who it was and immediately went to the surface, somewhat confused.
Her target was a human girl with gorgeous and radiant eyes. However, by the time she arrived near the surface, she was doubtful because she could feel so many powerful entities waiting for her by the lake.
'What do you all want?' The water spirit asked somewhat restlessly. The Elven Empress was also there, but that fact didn't lessen her worries.
'We have only come to visit you, O esteemed water spirit. I apologize for bothering your night exercise.' Elysia answered politely.
'You can see my humble abode even though I don't allow mortals for that? Is it because of your eye ability? Forget what you saw just now. I just woke up from my sleep. Get out of here. I'm not having guests.' The water spirit frowned and took some distance from the lake's surface.
"..." Elysia deactivated her sacred vision and then looked left and right. Apparently, that water spirit only talked to her. However, their arrival was not welcomed by the water spirit of this beautiful lake.
